The Caribbean region is particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. Climate change pose a threat lives and livelihoods people living in region. To mitigate these impacts, has joined with international community, pledged implement their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) Paris Agreement. cost implementing NDCs measures high, have not been receiving required financial support. address this limitation, market-based mechanism such as an Emissions Trading System (ETS) could be implemented. This would create incentive for emitters reduce GHG emissions, which turn help achieve emissions reduction targets NDCs. An ETS policy tool that allows companies trade emission allowances, are permits represent right emit certain amount GHGs. study explores mechanics potential regional Caribbean.

Although both prefectural governmental green investment (GGI_city) and provincial (GGI_prov) have potentially diverse impacts on cities’ carbon emission reduction (CER), previous studies rarely examined the effects of (GGI) different indicators CER such as total dioxide emissions (CE), intensity (CEI) per capita (PCE) in context cities nested provinces China. In our research, six hierarchical linear models are established to investigate impact GGI_city GGI_prov, well their interaction, CER. These consider eight control factors, including fractional vegetation coverage, nighttime light index (NTL), proportion built-up land (P_built), so on. Furthermore, heterogeneous across groups based area, terrain, economic development level considered. Our findings reveal following: (1) The three GGI exhibit significant spatial temporal variations. coefficient variation for CEI PCE shows a fluctuating upward characteristic. (2) Both lnGGI_city lnGGI_prov promoted CER, but strength lnCE lnPCE is more pronounced than that lnGGI_city. GGI_prov can strengthen effect significantly lnCE. Diverse variables exerted albeit with considerable effects. (3) upon conducting grouped analysis by area size, terrain complexity, level. interaction term lnGGI_city:lnGGI_prov stronger small group simple group. Among variables, Development Level (GDPpc), logarithm gross fixed assets (lnFAI), NTL, P_built particularly differences groups.

Buildings are considered to have significant emission reduction potential. Residential building carbon emissions, as the most type of building-related represent a crucial factor in achieving both peak and neutrality targets for China. Based on data from Henan Province, large province located central China, between 2010 2020, this study employed Kaya-LMDI decomposition method analyze seven driving factors evolution, encompassing energy, population, income, assessed historical CO2 emissions residential buildings. Then, by integrating Kaya identity static analysis with Monte Carlo dynamic simulation, various scenarios were established infer future evolution trend, time, potential The results follows: (1) buildings exhibited rising trend albeit decelerating growth rate. (2) Per capita household disposable income is main increase but housing purchase index inhibits Henan, total reaches 106.42 million tons during research period. (3) During period 2020 2050, Province will exhibit an “inverted U-shaped” under three scenarios. base scenario predicts that reach their 131.66 2036, while low-carbon forecasts 998.8 2030 high-carbon projects 138.65 tonnes 2041. (4) Under simulation scenario, it anticipated 2036 ± 3 years, corresponding 155.34 tons. This can serve valuable reference development pathways within sector.

With the challenge posed by global warming, accurately estimating and managing carbon emissions becomes a key step for businesses, especially power generation companies, to reduce their environmental impact. Optuna–LightGBM–XGBoost, novel emission relationship model that aims improve efficiency of monitoring estimation is proposed in this paper. Deeply exploring intrinsic link between production data emissions, paves new path “measuring through electricity”, contrast factor method commonly used China. Unit from companies are processed into structured tabular data, parallel processing framework constructed with LightGBM XGBoost, optimized Optuna algorithm. The multilayer perceptron (MLP) fuse features enhance prediction accuracy capturing characters individual models cannot detect. Simulation results show Optuna–LightGBM–XGBoost can achieve better performance compared existing methods. mean absolute error (MAE), squared (MSE), percentage (MAPE), coefficient determination (R2) 0.652, 0.939, 0.136, 0.994, respectively. This not only helps governments enterprises develop more scientific reasonable reduction strategies policies, but also lays solid foundation achieving neutrality goals.

With growing concerns worldwide on global warming, emissions reduction has become a major challenge for many countries. China, as the largest carbon emitter, played key role in achieving green transition. Using panel data from 2004–2017 31 Chinese provinces, this study examines relationship between collectivism culture and My results reveal that places with stronger tend to make more investments, remain valid after battery of robustness tests. In addition, heterogeneity analysis indicates positive effects investments are pronounced if province governor is advanced age, well educated, holds long tenure. Additionally, such conspicuous those provinces serious pollution, greater levels collectivism, developed markets. This fills theoretical gap field research cultural perspective. Therefore, important implications promoting development achieve peaking neutrality.
